In reflection the sculpture brief I have enjoyed myself. At the beginning I found it quite hard to get into sculpture and trying to in 3D. I found the theme memories interesting and liked how it was so open to interrelation and everyone kind of took their own spin on it. I wanted to focus on a more science outlook, looking at what memories look like in the brain. I wanted to show through my work when you have encountered bad events in your life your brain forgets them by its selves, so you don’t have to relive those bad times. This is your brains own defence mechanism against PTSD and depressing. I anted to show the black outs and memories loss in my sculpture somehow. I came to a point in the work where I had a strong theme and idea of what I wanted to show through my sculpture but wasn’t sure how to turn my idea in to a sculpture. I was also worked my work would look childish or like a school projects, so I was a bit stuck.

After my tutorial I got a lot of comfort and wanted to crack on with my sculpture. I started playing around with wire as I thought it would be the perfect material to create those organic memory shapes, I wanted to make the wire thicker and more stable so used papier Mache which I think worked well. If I could do the brief again, I think I could have been a lot better with my time management. I spend the first week kind of lost not knowing where to go where I should have got stuck into as if I would have started earlier my sculpture would have been bigger. In my cri the feedback got w I could have spent couple hours a day on the sculpture because by the end of the three weeks it would have been huge making t more impactful and impressive. I could have also thought about lighting and having small LAD lights within my sculpture and really thing about the plinth or placement of the sculpture as I think that let me down little bit.

I think I could have done my artist research much earlier a think I could have taken a lot of inspiration from other sculpture artist which would have pushed my work much further.
